Analytical solutions of the Stokes equations written as a differential equation for the Stokes stream function were obtained. These solutions describe three-dimensional axisymmetric flows of a viscous liquid inside a drop that has the shape of a spheroid of rotation and have a similar set of characteristics with Taylor flows inside bubbles that occur during the transfer of a two-component mixture through tubes.
